Market Close 25 Sep 25: Commodities boost miners as dividends roll in

The ASX200 ended Thursday more or less flat after a choppy session, with mining and energy stocks leading gains on stronger oil and copper prices. Woodside and Santos rose with crude oil at seven-week highs, while copper miners like Sandfire and BHP climbed after supply disruptions in Indonesia. Billions in dividends were paid out by BHP, Rio Tinto, Telstra and others, and Premier Investments delivered a mixed result as Peter Alexander sales grew but Smiggle weakened. Rate cut expectations remain uncertain after hotter August inflation kept investors cautious.
